Ray & Joan: The Man Who Made the McDonald’s Fortune and the Woman Who Gave It All Away

July 24 @ 10:30 am

Join author Lisa Napoli as she tells the incredible saga of Ray & Joan Kroc, who in 1974, endeared themselves to the city when they purchased the San Diego Padres, saving the team from a move to Washington D.C. You’ll hear about their complex lives together and Joan’s blossoming as a philanthropic force after Ray’s death. She donated hundreds of millions of dollars to causes including hospice care, AIDS research and more—causes her husband would have most certainly vetoed. Don’t miss this riveting presentation!
